✨Flourish, a Work and Health event, which was facilitated by the Public Health team from Westmorland and Furness Council and hosted at Barrow AFC.

🗣️It was an exciting opportunity to be involved and to put forward our ideas on the 10 year plan.

At present, a quarter of our client demographic is male 🧍‍♂️

Unfortunately, we still see a stigma around men asking for help with their mental health.

The service we provide is specialist, it is not for one specific age group or one specific gender.

It’s time to ignore stigma and reach out 🫂
Whether this be just talking to someone,
Attending an informal group,
Or reaching out to someone such as ourselves for help.

Things can always get better 💞

In the space of a year, we had 238 instances where a session was booked but a client did not attend.

We still pay everything regardless of whether a client is there or not ‼️

In terms of cost to us, this was nearly £8000 just to the counsellor, without taking into account running costs, staffing, and all the other costs you may not see 🫣

This may help put into perspective some of the financial challenges we face, and why we really do mean it when we say every single penny donated makes a difference 💞

YOUNGER, for many.

Self Harm isn’t restricted to adults.
It has no bias.

It could be you,
Your neighbour,
